1 Feeser s Fall Meeting Soup Overview Soup Promotion Campbell s Soup Company & Key Impact Sales October

2 Introduction Soup, a traditional comfort food and quintessential healthy fare, is a significant part of the American diet. Increased emphasis on healthful eating along with the rise of the fast-casual segment and retail prepared foods, both strong channels for soup, have no doubt contributed to their appeal as viable foodservice options. Two-thirds of consumers (67%) patronize restaurants or other foodservice concepts weekly or more often, and 55% order soup at least some of these times. In fact, more than two-fifths of consumers visit certain restaurants specifically because they enjoy the soup (46%) that these restaurants offer. Still, today s consumers report eating soup away from home slightly less often than they were two years ago. Some consumers are reluctant to purchase soup away from home, perceiving these offerings to be options they can easily prepare themselves. Catering to consumers need for variety and striking a balance between craveable but healthy and innovative yet familiar soups that justify foodservice price points will be important in driving away from home purchases. Moreover, operators may have room to ramp up soup orders by positioning these offerings as appealing across dayparts and mealparts. 2 2

3 Summary of Key Themes 1. Most consumers order soup at least sometimes 2. Packaged retail options compete heavily with foodservice soup purchases 3. The presence of soup on the menu can drive traffic 4. Soup appeals for a variety of dayparts and mealparts 5. Combo meals are ideal for soup on menus 6. Mood and health strongly dictate soup purchases 7. Seasonality plays a key role in soup purchases 8. Overall, consumers prefer traditional ingredients for soup 9. Variety and innovation for soup can pique consumer interest 10. Trends toward unique ingredients and globally influenced flavors proliferate for soup 3

4 Key Themes & Implications 1. Most consumers order soup at least sometimes Two-third of consumers (67%) purchase foodservice weekly or more often, and 55% order soup at least some of the times they order foodservice. Monthly soup purchases are highest at casual-dining restaurants but are spread across LSRs, FSRs and prepared-foods areas. Implication: In order to drive incremental sales, operators will need to ensure their soup offerings meet consumers needs for quality, convenience and affordability. 2. Packaged retail options compete heavily with foodservice soup purchases More than half of consumers eat soup (54%) at home once a week or more often, and those who do not order soup at restaurants cite their ability to easily make it at home as a key deterrent. Implication: Operators and suppliers will want to offer premium and innovative soups that are not easily duplicated at home in order to justify price points and differentiate foodservice offerings. 4 4

5 Key Themes & Implications (Continued) 3. The presence of soup on the menu can drive traffic More than two-fifths of consumers strongly agree that they visit certain restaurants specifically because they enjoy the soup (46%) these restaurants offer. Further, soup may fit many consumers needs for a craveable, yet healthy option that provides good overall value all key purchase drivers. Implication: Nearly all consumers expect restaurants to serve at least one soup, suggesting the importance of soup offerings. 4. Soup appeals for a variety of dayparts and mealparts Consumers view soup as most fitting as a lunch entrée. However, consumers are increasingly ordering soup as a lunch appetizer or side. Some consumers, particularly younger ones, even say that they often order soup as a snack in between meals, and that they find these options appealing during morning hours. Implication: Soup can easily be menued in a variety of portion sizes at difference prices in order to appeal to consumers for multiple mealparts. Smaller, lower-priced servings can be positioned as appetizers, sides, snacks or add-ons, while larger portions can appeal as full meals. 5 5

6 Key Themes & Implications (Continued) 5. Combo meals are ideal for menus Half of consumers (51%) say it is important that soup can be bundled with other items. Additionally, 58% of consumers even say that they are more likely to order soup as a combo meal than as a single item. More than two-thirds of consumers (36%) would be highly likely to order soup with a salad. Implication: Soup and salad are widespread on combo menus, and are often paired with each other or sandwiches. Operators can differentiate by pairing soup and salad with a wide variety of options, such as quiche or flatbread, and featuring them on mix-and-match menus. 6. Mood and health strongly dictate soup purchases Half of consumers (51%) say one of the main reasons they order soup is because they re in the mood for it, making this the leading soup purchase driver. Health is the driving force behind salad purchases; and 31% order soup because it s a healthy option. Implication: Consumers perceive creamy vegetable soups, such as mushroom and broccoli, to be craveable and healthful; therefore, these soups can cater to both mood and diet. A premium callout, which implies quality and therefore some level of health, resonates with soup consumers. 6 6

7 Key Themes & Implications (Continued) 7. Seasonality plays a key role in soup occasions More than two-thirds of consumers (68%) say that they are more likely to order soup when it is cold outside. Further, 37% would pay at least slightly more for soup that contains seasonal ingredients. The inclusion of local ingredients for which season is a factor can also drive soup purchases. Implication: Consider switching out soup offerings with the seasons for instance, chilled fruit soups such as watermelon gazpacho in the summer or hearty soups in the fall or winter can emphasize uniqueness, variety, quality, freshness and health. 8. Overall, consumers prefer traditional ingredients for soup Chicken noodle, a traditional American staple, tops all other soups measured as consumers most preferred type, followed by potato and beef stew. Implication: Although consumers enjoy familiar soup varieties, uniqueness also plays a role in the value equation. Operators and suppliers will want to offer a mix of both, perhaps by developing options that add an innovative spin to traditional favorites. 7 7

8 Key Themes & Implications (Continued) 9. Variety and innovation for soup can pique consumer interest No one type of soup out as far more preferred than others, and 50% of consumers are interested in trying new and unique soups. Further, more than a third of consumers (35%) say they purchase soup because they want to try new or unique varieties. Implication: LTOs on the soup menu that showcase ethnic ingredients or interesting flavor pairings may draw in consumers who are looking for variety and unique options. 10. Trends toward unique ingredients and globally influenced flavors proliferate for soup Although familiar soups reign supreme, ethnic and innovative options, such as Asian-style ramen and chilled varieties, are poised for growth; younger consumers, in particular, show interest. Implication: Contemporary soup offerings are associated with health, differentiated flavor and trending ethnic cuisines; therefore, offering an Asian-style soup, for example, may enhance a concept s positioning as innovative and unique. 8 8
